Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

I've been contemplating moving abroad and taking my design career to a different country. 

I don't see a very bright future for myself in India if I continue to be a UX Designer here.

Is there anyone here who's moved abroad as a designer? What's it like?

- Tweet from my Twitter circle, plus I also had this in mind. TIA

Moved abroad as a designer?

I don't think I have a future in India. In about 2 years, proposals for marriage will start coming for me and family members will start harassing me for it. Also, would like to find a partner (which is quite impossible here). I am a product designer and want to move out of this country as soon as the job market is stable.

How can I move to US/Western Europe apart from doing masters as a product designer? Do companies hire product designers from other countries? Or is it more easy as engineer?

Please don't troll here, I am already depressed all the time and can't handle it more

Moving to Europe

Product Manager

I am currently working as an Industrial Designer at a Startup ( 14 LPA ). I have a Master’s Degree in Design from Indian Institute of Science. I am not finding jobs and am very confused about wether to continue as an Industrial Designer since I see very less demand as of now. On the other hand UX design is very lucrative in terms of perks and package. Your thoughts would be really helpful.

Should I switch to UI/UX

Lead Designer

I always planned on doing masters after completing two years of experience. But with the current market scenario, is it worth going to USA to pursue masters in HCI ? I’m stressed about not getting h1b visa and also having to pay the loan if the market continues to be bad. 
Also, would love to know if anyone has done and is practicing as a ux designer in Germany, Netherlands? What are the prospects in Europe?

For context: 
Bachelors in Communication design 
Years of experience: 2 (product design) at reputed companies

Stay in India or pursue masters in HCI abroad?

Hey, I have 8 years of work ex and I work in the marketing domain. Last role was mid senior level.
 I have done my MBA from a good B School in India.
I am not interested in settling abroad so have always avoided/ ignored outside opportunities.
But lately I have been thinking of moving out for a few years for exposure . I am 30 years old.
Suggest if that makes sense. And if yes,  EU and south Asia ? USA is a no. Too far and doesnt make sense for marketing.
I am very confused and want to decide soon.  South Asia seems to have a good but very limited pool of companies and EU, am not aware about much. Any leads/ companies to check out would be appreciated too as I have just started job hunt.

Need serious advice on moving abroad for work.
